Madden 20 not connecting to the ea servers
I was wondering why Madden hasn’t been playable for five days? I haven’t changed anything with my internet.

I was seeing the same the same thing with the servers. I’ll double check everything when I have a minute and I’ll get back to you. Thanks.
It’s been almost three weeks now and I still can’t stay connected. It kicks me out of games. P2P and the solos. I’m growing very frustrated as I’m missing out on a lot of game play and promotions.

Would you mind updating your PS4 to use a different DNS server? The DNS is basically the address book your device uses to determine how it makes its connections over the internet. Sometimes changing to a different DNS can help with connection issues like this.
To update the DNS on PS4 go through the following steps:
1. Go to the Settings menu on your PS4 > Network > Set Up Internet Connection > Choose wifi or LAN cable depending on what you're using.
2 Select IP Address Settings (Automatic) > DHCP Host Name (Do Not Use) > DNS Settings (Manual)
3. Enter the Primary DNS as 8.8.8.8 and the Secondary DNS as 8.8.4.4
4. Confirm these selections then select MTU Settings (Automatic) > Proxy Server (Do Not Use) > Test Internet Connection
Let me know if you're still unable to connect after that.

Hey Kent, still not staying connected to the ea servers. Starting to feel like I’ve been waisting money on Madden. There where minor issues last year and the year before that resolved after about a week. This is pretty much taken the zero chill promo away from me. I get booted from the server 95% of the time and most of those are in the middle of p2p game play. I’ll open a pack and get kick off the server. Which is not only frustrating for me, but it’s got to drive the people who are unfortunate enough to get paired with me crazy. Running out of options. Every other app or game plays just fine. NO hiccups.

@jra100908 I can understand the feeling. Disconnections get pretty frustrating when they keep happening over and over again. What sort of troubleshooting have you been able to try on your side so far?
